The book arrived today. It's an easy read and quite enjoyable.
It has 44 chapters that mostly stand alone and have a mixture of fact, opinions and reflections, often in the one chapter.
It is not a picture book, there are only six photos, it's 99% text.
Highly recommended.

Subject: Quirky (?) history og Melbourne's trams
For many years there has been a demand for a comprehensive history of Melbourne's trams.
Greg Gardiner, a retired academic, set out to do that and ended up with what he describes as "Part history, part memoir, part fiction, with chapters that move back and forwards in time, Tram hops genres like passengers changing routes."
